    This workout is not good at all, you need to do"

    push/legs/pull
    or
    upper/lower/off/off/upper/lower/off
    or
    a Total body workout

    I suggest get workout book "Getting Stronger" by Bill Pearl. He is not an All American weightlifter but his advise is helpful.

    good luck.
